I wanted to share some trend graphs with you as well as give a little insight into looking at and understanding market data properly.
One of the first things I do to dissect market conditions is run a general search of all sales in the entire city or area where the subject property is located. In this case, I plotted sales in [...]
I thought it would be interesting to plot sales in the city of Benicia over the past five years to get a panoramic view of the ups and downs of the market. What do you see? I think the trend somewhat follows the pattern of a rainbow.
The graph is based on single family detached sales recorded in [...]
Rancho Murieta is a CDP in Sacramento County off of Jackson Road and has somewhat of a secluded feel due to its location miles away from other suburban tracts. The community consists of two separate parts called Rancho Murieta North and Rancho Murieta South. Rancho Murieta is a retirement community to many, and is also attractive to many families.
